Christmas Cheer - it's about that time...

Christmas Day is only 13 weeks away! I know we haven't handed out the Halloween candy yet or enjoyed the pumpkin pie around moms' dining room table. However, it's that time to start thinking about your Christmas list...who's been nice?? SO...Trendy Ink is here to make your holiday a little easier this year. Here’s what we’re offering:

Custom Designed Christmas Cards – provide your favorite family photo (1-3 print quality images) and I’ll custom design your card giving you something unique and ‘fridge worthy’ for all your family and friends to display. ;)

Christmas Tags – Liven up your gift-giving, party favor or hostess gift for the holidays with these designed gift tags. I like to tie them to my holiday baked goods and hostess gifts for my Christmas parties. They look great under the tree! Christmas tags are printed on cardstock.

Happy Shopping!

It's August Already!?

Hope everyone's week is off to a great start! Time is flying by and the heat index definitely proves August is here! Billy and I had a wonderful weekend, even though he had to work part of it. Friday we went to the doctor and heard our sweet baby's heartbeat again. That n-e-v-e-r gets old! We enjoyed our downtime and even planted a new tree in the yard. I love-love white crape myrtle trees & since they were on sale at Lowe's (even especially at Lowe's I can't pass up a sale) we picked one up to add to our front flower bed.  I cannot wait to see it grow and bloom, they are gorgeous trees.

TrendyInk Stamps are selling well so I wanted to show you the options again since they're not on my website:

Stamps are $34 (plus $5 if you need shipping) and are available in black, blue and red ink. Lots of clients are ordering them for house-warming, birthday and wedding gifts. Email me at Trendyinkdesigns {at} yahoo {dot} com for more details or to place a order.

Happy Monday!

My new excuse...

Hello blog world. I have already admitted to being the worst blogger ever so I cannot use that excuse anymore for my lack of post. I can however use the excuse that I've been extremely tired and the lack of energy after my work day leaves no creative juices for blogging. My new excuse, I'm pregnant! Yep, there is a baby Bird nesting away right now that we cannot wait to meet the first of the year. So, until I'm up to speed again I'll just have to be okay with the random post here and there.

I do hope to have some new items for Christmas this year. I'm thinking ahead since this Christmas I don't think I'll be 100% in the swing of working with a baby around the corner. :) Keep an eye out and I hope to have some fun Trendy Ink products to share in the coming months.

Annnnnd because a post is more fun with pictures. Here's my first baby, Oliver, watching his 'daddy' cut the grass. I love that boy! :)

A quick update {I'm still here}

I know, I am totally the worst blogger. To be completely honest I've been in a rut and just have not wanted to blog or share anything. Billy and I have stayed so busy lately. We had a really nice spring break in March and took a trip to Tampa, St. Pete and Orlando. As always, we had the absolute best time! Lately, Trendy Ink Designs has continued to be busy. I'm producing quite a bit of stamps and embossers. I've also been designing a lot of baby invites. I need to get those added to my website. Eventually...

My sister-in-law sent me this picture of my nephew, Carlo wearing my brothers uniform. I just had to share. He is the cutest 7 year old boy I know. I cannot wait until they make their move back home to the good ole' USA so I can spoil him rotten. 

Happy Mother's Day to all you Momma's out there! Enjoy YOUR weekend.

Worst. Blogger. Ever.

I am officially the worst blogger. Ever. These past two months have flown by and I have yet to slow down. Trendy Ink Designs has been super busy & I'm so thankful. So, my new product line is coming really soon (I promise) but until then this is where you can find me...

AND... stopping to play with this little guy since Billy has to work this weekend. :)

Birthday {recap}

What they don't tell you as a kid is that sometimes you have to work on your Birthday when you grow up. This is what the 30-somethings chapter holds. Ugh! So, I took a half day just in spite of the fact that I was NOT going to work the entire day. :) However, this Birthday was special because of my amazing husband. Billy is always sure to go out of his way to make my day spectacular. We spent the morning together and then off to work we went. When Friday rolled around our plan was to celebrate (more)...which means shopping, of course! I was told I could buy anything I wanted that day. Dangerous, right? Here is one of my new favorite things we picked up while shopping...



My favorite, Ray-Ban

Now, I'm looking forward to the summer days much more and not just because of the beautiful FL weather. :)  ALSO, thank you to those who took advantage of the my Birthday {31} sale! Your items will be available soon. I will be in touch.

A New Year {already!?}

I printed out something at work today and noticed on the bottom of the paper "1/4/2011" and that's when it truly hit me, it's 2011! It has taken me four days (I may be a little slow) for this to sink in.  I cannot get over how fast time is moving. I still haven't even blogged about our Christmas and what a wonderful Christmas it was! Tomorrow in celebration of my Birthday, I will have a SALE on one of my hot Trendy Ink Design products. Until then I will leave you with a few pictures from the past couple of weeks...

 Dinner with friends - a few of them are missing from this picture but it sure was nice to catch up! 

Christmas Eve after the Candelight service at our church,

Billy & I enjoyed the Yule Log! I love-love the Yule Log! :)

My favorite guys! Billy and Oliver on Christmas Day at Moms.

Poor Oliver was getting a "talking to" since he wanted so badly to play with the presents (AND chase Sophie). :)

Be sure to check back tomorrow for more details on my Birthday Sale!
